Thinking about updating your kitchen but not sure what colour to go for? At NW Spray, we’ve resprayed hundreds of kitchens across Tipperary, Waterford, Limerick and beyond—and we’ve seen clear trends emerge in what colours homeowners love most.
Whether you're going for calm and classic or bold and modern, here are the top 7 most popular kitchen colours in Ireland right now, and why they’re so timeless.
1. Warm White (Farrow & Ball’s “Pointing”)
White will always be a favourite—but not just any white. Homeowners are now choosing warmer whites with subtle undertones that feel softer and more welcoming.✅ Works well with wood or stone worktops✅ Reflects natural light beautifully✅ Clean, modern, and bright
2. Classic Ivory
A go-to for traditional-style kitchens, ivory never goes out of fashion.✅ Pairs perfectly with shaker cabinets✅ Great with brass or antique handles✅ Ideal if you want a light colour without starkness
3. Heritage Green (Farrow & Ball “Card Room Green”)
Earthy greens are in! "Card Room Green" is a muted, smoky shade that brings richness and depth to any space.✅ Very popular in country-style homes✅ Looks stunning with gold or matte black handles✅ Calming and connected to nature
4. Navy Blue (like “Railings” or “Stiffkey Blue”)
Dark blues are bold, but elegant.✅ Ideal for statement islands or full cabinetry✅ Matches beautifully with white quartz or marble-effect worktops✅ Adds a sense of luxury
5. Light Grey (Farrow & Ball “Cornforth White”)
Grey remains a top choice for people who want something neutral yet stylish.✅ Versatile and timeless✅ Works in both modern and traditional kitchens✅ Easy to pair with splashbacks or feature walls
6. Charcoal & Graphite
Darker tones are making a big comeback. For clients who want a moody, modern look, charcoal kitchens are leading the way.✅ Often paired with metallic accents✅ Great in well-lit kitchens✅ High-end feel
7. Two-Tone Kitchens (e.g. White & Navy)
More and more people are going for a two-tone effect—especially combining white uppers and darker base cabinets.✅ Creates visual interest✅ Helps define different zones in open-plan spaces✅ Gives you the best of both worlds
